He hiki ʻole ka Misiona
"Ke hana ikaika nei nā hui UNRWA ma Gaza e hoʻolako i nā pono āpau no kēlā poʻe, a ʻo ka helu hoʻokahi ka palekana a me ka palekana," wahi āna.
"Ke hana nei mākou i kā mākou mea maikaʻi loa ʻoiai nā pilikia āpau, ʻoiai ka palena o nā kumuwaiwai, ʻoiai ʻaʻohe wahie. Akā aia mākou ma ka ʻāina e hana nei i kahi misionari hiki ʻole ke hoʻopaʻa i ka mea hiki iā mākou ke palekana no ko mākou poʻe. "
He makuahine ʻo Ms. Hijazi a i kēia pule ua holo kona ʻohana i ʻAigupita no ka mea e palekana kāna mau keiki ma laila.
Ua kamaʻilio ʻo ia iā Nūhou UN e pili ana i ka hoʻoholo ʻeha e haʻalele iā Gaza, kona home a me kāna hana.
Ua hoʻoponopono ʻia kēia nīnau kūkala no ka lōʻihi a me ka mālamalama.
Maha Hijazi: ʻAʻole kaʻu mau keiki a i ʻole kekahi o kā mākou mau keiki Palestinian i palekana, palekana, a palekana. I ka pō a me ke ao holoʻokoʻa lohe lākou i ka pahū ʻana ma nā wahi a pau a hoʻokahi wale nō nīnau a lākou: He aha kā mākou i hana hewa ai i kūpono i kēia ola, a e make paha mākou i kēia lā a i kēia pō?
I kēlā me kēia lā e nīnau mai lākou iaʻu ma mua o ko mākou moe ʻana, 'Mama, make paha kāua i kēia pō, e like me ko kāua mau hoalauna, e like me ko kāua ʻohana?' No laila, pono wau e ʻapo iā lākou a hoʻohiki iā lākou inā e make mākou, e make pū mākou, no laila ʻaʻole mākou e manaʻo i kekahi mea. A inā lohe ʻoe i ka pahū ʻana, a laila palekana ʻoe. ʻO ka pōhaku e pepehi iā ʻoe, ʻaʻole ʻoe e lohe i kona kani.
Nūhou UN: Ua mahuka ʻoe iā Gaza i ka Pōʻakahi no ʻAigupita. E haʻi mai iā mākou e pili ana i ka huakaʻi, ʻoiai e like me ka ʻōlelo ʻana o nā kānaka kōkua kanaka ʻaʻohe wahi palekana ma Gaza.
Maha Hijazi: Ua huhū au no ka haʻalele ʻana i koʻu ʻāina hānau - e haʻalele i koʻu home, koʻu hale noho, a me ka haʻalele ʻana i kaʻu hana i kēlā me kēia lā i ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka poʻe mahuka - akā he aha hou kaʻu e hana ai no kaʻu mau keiki no ka mea he ʻelua lāhui ko lākou. Pono wau e loaʻa kēia manawa e hiamoe ai lākou a manaʻo e like lākou me nā keiki ʻē aʻe. No laila, ʻaʻole au makemake e poina i kēia manawa me ka ʻeha o loko.
Hiki iaʻu ke haʻi aku iā ʻoe i koʻu huakaʻi holoʻokoʻa e uē ana me kaʻu mau keiki no ka mea ʻaʻole mākou makemake e haʻalele i ko mākou ʻāina, ʻaʻole mākou makemake e haʻalele iā Gaza. Akā ua koi ʻia mākou e hana i ka ʻimi ʻana i ka palekana a me ka palekana.
Ua noho maoli au ma waena o Gaza, ma Deir al Bala, a aia ke ala ma Rafah ma ka hema. He nui ka poʻe i hoʻokuʻu wale ʻia e hele wāwae ana ma ke alanui ʻo Salahadin a ʻaʻohe o lākou wahi e hele ai. Ua ʻike mākou iā lākou a ua ʻike mākou i ka pahū ʻana i kā mākou huakaʻi a hiki i ke ala ʻo Rafah, ma ke ala, ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia ka poʻe Palestine āpau e hele. Pono ʻoe e loaʻa kahi lāhui ʻē aʻe a i ʻole passport ʻē aʻe. No laila, paʻakikī, ʻaʻole au e poina i kēia lā.
Nūhou UN: He aha kāu hana nui ma UNRWA?
Maha Hijazi: ʻO kaʻu hana nui i ka wā ulia pōpilikia, a i ʻole i kēia kaua, ʻo ia ke kikowaena meaʻai ma ke keʻena hana waena. No laila, ʻo wau ke kuleana no ka mālama ʻana i nā meaʻai e pono ai no ka poʻe i haʻalele ʻia (IDP) i loko o nā pā UNRWA. ʻO kā mākou hoʻolālā ka loaʻa ʻana o 150,000 Palestinians IDPs i loko o nā pā UNRWA a hiki i kēia manawa ma kahi o hoʻokahi miliona. He kiʻekiʻe loa ko lākou pono a nele i nā kumuwaiwai, no laila ke hoʻoikaika nei mākou e hoʻopaʻa i ka liʻiliʻi loa e ola ai lākou.
Nūhou UN: Pehea ka hana ʻana o UNRWA, a ma hea e hiki ai ke kōkua iā Gazans?
Maha Hijazi: Ke ʻimi nei nā kānaka i nā kula UNRWA. Ke ʻimi nei lākou i ka palekana ma lalo o ka hae UN, a laila na mākou ke kuleana e hāʻawi iā lākou i ka meaʻai a me nā mea ʻai ʻole, nā pākeke, nā moena, me ka wai inu a me ka wai kahe.
Ke hana ikaika nei nā hui UNRWA ma Gaza e hoʻolako i nā pono kumu a pau no kēlā poʻe, a ʻo ka helu ʻekahi ka palekana a me ka palekana. ʻOiai, ʻaʻohe wahi palekana ma Gaza, he ʻoiaʻiʻo a pololei loa. Akā ke hana nei mākou i kā mākou mea maikaʻi loa, ʻoiai nā pilikia āpau, ʻoiai nā kumu waiwai liʻiliʻi, ʻoiai ʻaʻohe wahie. Akā aia mākou ma ka ʻāina e hana nei i kahi misionari hiki ʻole ke hoʻopaʻa i ka mea hiki iā mākou ke hoʻopaʻa no ko mākou poʻe.
Nūhou UN: Ua loaʻa anei iā UNRWA ka wahie i kou wā i laila? Pehea ka meaʻai a me ka wai? Loaʻa iā ʻoe nā lako e pono ai?
Maha Hijazi: No nā lā mua o ka piʻi ʻana, ua hoʻōki mākou i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka wahie. A ma hope iho ua loaʻa iā mākou e like me nā kulu wahie no ka hana ʻana i kā mākou mau kaʻa. I kēia mau lā, ʻehā a ʻelima paha lā i hala aku nei, ua ʻae ʻia mākou e loaʻa i ka wahie, akā he mea liʻiliʻi loa ia. Ke hoʻomanaʻo nei au i nā lā hope aʻu i noho ai ma Gaza i loaʻa iā mākou nā kaʻa kōkua ma ke ala ʻo Rafah, akā ʻaʻohe wahie ma nā kaʻa, no laila ua paʻa nā kaʻa no nā lā ʻelua e kali ana e hoʻopiha ʻia. ʻO nā mea hoʻoheheʻe e hāʻawi i ka uila, ʻo ka paila pū ʻana i ka wai, nā mea kanu ʻōpala, pono nā mea a pau i ka wahie, ma waho aʻe o nā hale ʻai.
E pili ana i ka meaʻai a me ka wai, he liʻiliʻi loa ia a ʻaʻole lawa no kā mākou pono no ka mea ke piʻi nui nei ka helu o nā IDP. Akā ʻaʻole wale ka poʻe i loko o nā pā UNRWA. He mau haneli kaukani o ka poʻe ma waho o nā pā UNRWA. Pololi lākou a ʻaʻole loaʻa ka meaʻai, ʻoiai ma nā mākeke kūloko. ʻAʻole koʻu ʻohana i loko o kahi malu UNRWA, akā hoʻomanaʻo wau ʻaʻole i lawa koʻu mau mākua i ka meaʻai mai ka mākeke. Ua ʻike mākou i kēlā. Hele mākou i nā mākeke, akā ua kaʻawale. ʻAʻohe mea i loaʻa iā mākou e kūʻai. He kālā kā mākou, akā ʻaʻohe mea e kūʻai ai.
